Excellent looking results on that, puffzter. You should be proud of that.

[Puffzter]

Thanks and actually I am quite proud that this grow went so insanelly well.
It will soften the blow a bit if my next project blows up in my face. hehe

One thing I have to say is that I really fucking love the eadibles (brief trip report a few posts back) .
Sure it uses up a bit more weed but on the other hand the effect was even better than I thought and since it stays on for so long it is surelly worth it, anyway I use my high grade trim for it, not bud (yet).
AND you don't have to smoke.

I am going to my damn stove right this moment, BRING OUT THE BUTTER!

[bickeybammer]

o fo sho puff i know what your talking about with the butter... i havested my erkels bout 1 1/2 ago and i made some bomb cookies with all my trim lol... made about 15 cookies with 2 ounces of trim .. made my roommates sister think she was going to die lol off of one cookie and 2 beers lol

[Puffzter]

Hehe, ye.
2 ounces of trim for 15 cookies?

I use 1 ounce of trim for 11 ounces of butter and that's good for helluva lot of cookies and still they are very strong.
I did sort my trim though. Everything but the very sticky trim went in the trash and the rest I saved. When you say you use 2 ounces for 15 cookies did you do the same because then those cookies will be da bomb I am sure hehe.

[bickeybammer]

i just used all of my trim and popcorn buds and made the butter for the cookies ... can out to be about 1 1/4 sticks of butter with 2 ounces of trim... i dunno how many ounces of butter that is but it was enough to make one batch of cookies with and they tasted really good but you can definitely smell the thc but couldnt hardly taste it

Hi Puffzter, I've been thinking of a similar setupto yourself. I stumbled upon your thread whilst researching the various methods people use and it's great! Unfortunately it is not safe to grow in my current location (university residence) with constant room inspections. Hopefully next year I will relocate to somewhere more discrete!

I'm hopefully going to be growing in a fairly small location. i.e. probably in a flat where people might drop in to visit un-announced. I'm sure you can therefore understand the need for discretion! I think that visually the tent grow cabinet is great and could be easily hidden or disguised. There's two other issues that i wanted to ask you about however. Firstly sound and then smell.

Obviously ventilation is important and requires a fan of some sort. What ventilation system exactly are you using? does it come with the tent or is it purchased seperately? And most importantly, how loud is it? I need mine to be a no louder than the volume of a PC (gaming type system with more than one strong fan) If it is a lot louder, what would you recommend?

Secondly I wanted to ask about the smell. I noticed you said your dad came over and was in close proximity to the plants without noticing anything. I'm guessing you used some sort of odor neutralizing device. What did you use? how expensive was it and was it effective? I've read great reviews about a cost-effective solution where you basically fill a bucket with some Odor Neutralizing Agent (ONA) and secure a fan to the bucket which circulates all air through the liquid/gel-based agent. I probably can't afford a carbon filter so this seems like a good solution for me...

anyway, i'm rambling now, once again congratulations on the harvest. It's a really inspiring thread. Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi and sorry I reply so late.
I've been at the worlds biggest LAN gaming mad for some days.

Anyway...
I use an inline fan with ducts. On top of that I use an oscillating table fan so spread the air over the canopy and a computer fan to pull the fresh air from the passive intake into the middle of the tent before the fresh air get sucked up THROUGH the plants.
The inline fan makes some noise but it is relativelly easy to build it into a simple muffler box.
I put a dimmer for lights mounted on the power coord going to this fan so I can adjust the speed of it.

All smell is scrubbed by a carbon filter.

The ventillation system is hooked up like this:
In the cailing of the tent the fan hangs on one side and the carbon filter on the other side. From the carbon filte runs a ducting to the cooltube to cool the 600W HPS and then it runs to the inline fan and out the top of the tent.
I use a 280cubic metre fan for this and running full out it does make a sound, even if noone is ther to hear it.
Something like 2-3 well ventillated gaming computers running at the same time.

The cost of the scrubber, ductings and fan would come to something like US$250 in Sweden. Money well spent since smell will never ever be an issue and a well ventillated grow area produces a LOT more weed.

I hope this helps a bit and if you want more info don't hesitate to ask.

Hi Puffzter, the email thing didn't work! oh well. Thanks for sharing the info about why ventilation is so important. I don't think I have read it grows better. But, I have read alot that they need a lot of fresh air-makes sense, if I sat down with mmj and think about it! take care pr :jointsmile: :stoned:

[Puffzter]

Hi Pain <3
I got your mail and answere a LONG time ago.
I'll resend that mail then.
Check the adress you used to contact me.

Sitting having a boring time when I came up with the brilliant idea to roll a Pineapple Express X-joint.
The side ones are not exactly the same diameter and shit because I didn't think I would succeed first couple of tries but here it is, first try.

haha, gonna be interesting to smoke when some friend is over.
